About This Novel

This book selects twenty-eight works written by O. Henry in different backgrounds - all famous representative works are included, and especially "The Dream", the last unfinished novel in his life, is included. In these works, O. Henry deconstructs the various embarrassments of existence with witty and sharp language, and uses the twists and turns of the ending to expand countless possibilities for life. As he said in his novel "The Gift of the Magi": The so-called life in this world is a combination of crying, sobbing, and laughter. And his articles are like a small candlelight on a winter night, making you smile with tears when you want to cry.

An unexpected beginning, a reverse thinking pattern, and an unexpected ending that is completely powerless to imagine, giving you a taste of everything. It's a pity that the scrolls are not enough.

Um

There is a kind of ending called the O. Henry ending, which is reasonable but unexpected. Therefore, as I look at it, I start to think of various endings. This can be regarded as exercising my thinking and logic, right😂

O. Henry

Every little story has its own unique meaning For example, the mutual devotion between lovers makes me believe how happy and lucky I am to have someone in this world who loves me. For example, there are many things that we take for granted, but they don't become more precious when you lose them, so cherish the moment and be grateful for life.

Few people are willing to give up what they love to fulfill the other person, and those things that are precious to them are far less important than the other person's place in their hearts. These two silly kids living in a small apartment did not forget to love each other because of poverty and trivial matters in life. I wish you peace
